1. As peace extends from deep inside yourself to embrace all the Sonship and give it rest, it will encounter many obstacles. ²Some of them you will try to impose. ³Others will seem to arise from elsewhere; from your brothers, and from various aspects of the world outside. ⁴Yet peace will gently cover them, extending past completely unencumbered. ⁵The extension of the Holy Spirit’s purpose from your relationship to others, to bring them gently in, is the way in which He will bring means and goal in line. ⁶The peace He lay, deep within you and your brother, will quietly extend to every aspect of your life, surrounding you and your brother with glowing happiness and the calm awareness of complete protection. ⁷And you will carry its message of love and safety and freedom to everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where healing waits for him. ⁸You will not wait to give him this, for you will call to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your call the Call for God. ⁹And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was given you.

2. All this will you do. ²Yet the peace that already lies deeply within must first expand, and flow across the obstacles you placed before it. ³This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. ⁴You can indeed be sure of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: The Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting place where you will rest in Him. ⁵He answered you, and entered your relationship. ⁶Would you not now return His graciousness, and enter into a relationship with Him? ⁷For it is He Who offered your relationship the gift of holiness, without which it would have been forever impossible to appreciate your brother.

3. The gratitude you owe to Him He asks but that you receive for Him. ²And when you look with gentle graciousness upon your brother, you are beholding Him. ³For you are looking where He is, and not apart from Him. ⁴You cannot see the Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. ⁵And the light in them will show you all that you need to see. ⁶When the peace in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy Spirit’s function here will be accomplished. ⁷What need is there for seeing, then? ⁸When God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all the thanks and gratitude that you have offered Him, and lay them gently before His Creator in the Name of His most holy Son. ⁹And the Father will accept them in His Name. ¹⁰What need is there of seeing, in the presence of His gratitude?
